The inquiry has been commissioned by Shropshire Council at the request of bereaved families to look into cases where no ashes were returned to families following the cremation of a baby or unborn child at Emstrey crematorium.
It began in December 2014 and is expected to last several months. It is hoped that a report containing findings, conclusions and recommendations will be published by the end of April 2015.
The agreed terms of reference for the inquiry can also be found on the inquiry webpages.
